The housing includes a push button which when activated by the driver of the vehicle triggers the emission of the coded infrared signal.

Dans le véhicule est monté un récepteur de télécommande à infrarouges 4 qui reçoit le signal codé provenant du boîtier de télécommande portatif 3. Ce récepteur comprend une photodiode et il est relié en 41 à l'unité centrale 2. Il commande, en 42 par l'intermédiaire d'un ensemble connu en soi, l'ouverture et la fermeture des portes.In the vehicle is mounted an infrared remote control receiver 4 which receives the coded signal coming from the portable remote control unit 3. This receiver comprises a photodiode and it is connected at 41 to the central unit 2. It controls, at 42 by l 'Intermediate of a set known per se, the opening and closing of the doors.

Le système comporte un dispositif de reconnaissance et de synthèse de la parole. Le dispositif de synthèse comporte un haut-parleur 5 monté dans l'habitacle du véhicule. Le dispositif de reconnaissance comporte un capteur acoustique 6 (micro) monté également dans l'habitacle à un endroit permettant réception des ordres donnés par l'occupant du véh icule.The system includes a speech recognition and synthesis device. The synthesis device comprises a loudspeaker 5 mounted in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The recognition device comprises an acoustic sensor 6 (micro) also mounted in the passenger compartment at a location allowing reception of orders given by the occupant of the vehicle.

Le haut-parleur 5 est relié en 51 à l'unité centrale 2. Le capteur acoustique est relié en 61 à l'unité centrale 2.The loudspeaker 5 is connected at 51 to the central unit 2. The acoustic sensor is connected at 61 to the central unit 2.

Le système comporte sur le tableau de bord ou à proximité de celui-ci un lecteur 7 de boîtier émetteur. Il permet l'enfichage du boîtier portable 3 de commande. Il est doté, à cet effet, d'un connecteur multi-broches femelle (ou mâle) qui se connecte avec un connecteur multi-broches mâle (ou femelle) du boîtier émetteur 3. Celui-ci est connecté en 71 à l'unité centrale 2.The system comprises on the dashboard or near it a reader 7 of the transmitter box. It allows the plug-in of the portable control unit 3. For this purpose, it is fitted with a female (or male) multi-pin connector which is connected with a male (or female) multi-pin connector on the transmitter box 3. This is connected at 71 to the unit central 2.

le boîtier 3 assure une fonction de mémoire. La mémoire contient un code secret seulement connu par le système qui devra le lire ainsi que les références acoustiques du propriétaire du véhicule.the housing 3 performs a memory function. The memory contains a secret code only known by the system which will have to read it as well as the acoustic references of the owner of the vehicle.

Dans l'habitacle est disposé un bouton 8 de démarrage rapide qui est connecté en 81 à l'unité centrale 2. Celle-ci est également connectée à un bouton de sécurité 10.In the passenger compartment is arranged a quick start button 8 which is connected at 81 to the central unit 2. The latter is also connected to a safety button 10.

Elle est reliée à un contact général 15 et au système d'allumage 16 du moteur.The central unit 2 is connected to a clutch sensor 13 and to a neutral sensor 14. It is connected to a general contact 15 and to the ignition system 16 of the engine.

Le fonctionnement du système va maintenant être expliqué.The operation of the system will now be explained.

Pour l'utilisation, le conducteur dispose à la place du jeu de clés traditionnel, un boîtier portatif 3. Lorsque le conducteur appuie sur le bouton du boîtier 3, il actionne la télécommande infrarouge qui déverrouille les portes (phase 1) et met sous tension le système monté dans l'habitacle pendant un laps de temps déterminé.For use, the driver has instead of the traditional set of keys, a portable box 3. When the driver presses the button on the box 3, he activates the infrared remote control which unlocks the doors (phase 1) and turns on the power the system installed in the passenger compartment for a specified period of time.

Lorsque le conducteur est entré dans le véhicule, il enfiche le boîtier de commande 3 dans le lecteur 7 logé dans l'habitacle.When the driver has entered the vehicle, he plugs the control unit 3 into the reader 7 housed in the passenger compartment.

Le système compare le code secret contenu dans le boîtier portatif avec un code qui est mémorisé dans l'unité centrale. Si les deux codes sont identiques, le système met sous tension le contact général 15.The system compares the secret code contained in the portable box with a code which is memorized in the central unit. If the two codes are identical, the system switches on the general contact 15.

En cas de discordance, le système s'arrête.In the event of a discrepancy, the system stops.

Pour faire démarrer le moteur, le conducteur doit prononcer son mot-clé (ex. : prénom, nom) ou taper un code secret sur le clavier du poste.To start the engine, the driver must say his keyword (e.g. first name, last name) or type a secret code on the station keypad.

Après vérification de l'identité de la commande parlée et de la commande enregistrée résidant dans la mémoire du boitier 3 ou de la validité du code clavier, le système vérifie que la voiture n'est pas en prise et en lance le démarrage en actionnant le démarreur et en déverrouillant l'allumage 16.After checking the identity of the spoken command and the recorded command residing in the memory of box 3 or the validity of the keypad code, the system verifies that the car is not in gear and starts starting it by actuating the starter and unlocking the ignition 16.

Le retrait du boîtier de télécommande 3 provoque l'arrêt du moteur par coupure du contact général.The removal of the remote control unit 3 causes the engine to stop by cutting off the general contact.

Le bouton de démarrage rapide 8 permet de relancer directement le moteur lors d'un calage et est validé par l'unité centrale 2 lorsqu'un premier démarrage du moteur a eu lieu, lors que le boîtier de télécommande n'a pas été retiré depuis et lors que le moteur est arrêté.The quick start button 8 makes it possible to restart the engine directly during stalling and is validated by the central unit 2 when a first engine start has taken place, when the remote control unit has not been removed since and when the engine is stopped.

Il est bien entendu que l'on peut sans sortir du cadre de l'invention imaginer des variantes et des perfectionnements de détails et de même envisager l'emploi de moyens équivalents.It is understood that it is possible, without departing from the scope of the invention, to imagine variants and refinements of details and even to envisage the use of equivalent means.
